Biography

Helmar Mang was a member of the West German K-4 flatwater canoe that finished ninth at the 1976 Montréal Summer Games. Chris van Eeden’s foot spar broke during the final, and therefore they finished last. In 1975, Mang won his only West German individual title, in the K-2 10,000. He also won the 1973 white water team title.
